Long time Pittsburgh media veteran John Steigerwald talks about politics and sports (not necessarily in that order) and everything else with the perspective of a guy who knows what the world was like before men tried to breast feed and quarterbacks started sliding. No apologies. Baby boomers can relate. Younger listeners might learn something.
